The most pressing concern a professional faces when working with individuals judged to be vulnerable in some way is that of making decisions concerning risk. Professionals are increasingly called upon to justify and account for the judgements that they make concerning the safeguarding and welfare of adults and older people. The theory behind the training contests the negative understandings of risk found in professional practice, policy and research, and proposes positive concepts that embrace risk enablement. It seeks to promote principles based on the rights of people at risk of harm to make choices about risk and risk taking. This essential training resource is a step-by-step guide to delivering a risk assessment and management programme for adults and older people. The training comprises of four modules and each is based on a specific stage of the risk assessment and management process. The modules are broken down into easily manageable training sessions which include case studies, exercises and handouts to support the presentation material and training notes.
Contents include: * Module 1: Positive risk taking * Module 2: Risk assessment * Module 3: Risk management * Module 4: Putting it all together
